We were visiting Locarno with friends and came here on a sunny summer day. Thankfully there weren’t many others so we were able to enjoy walking around. This church is amazing for its location and design. The interior has been well preserved, maybe restored. There are some 3D depictions of biblical events that are curious. The museum was closed so I can’t comment on that. Beware that there are many steps down (and up!) from the funicular stop. I definitely recommend spending time here. Cool spot.

A beautiful Catholic church that dates back to the 15th century, and the site of a Marian apparition. You can access it by funicular, or there's some street parking near the funicular station - otherwise it's a bit of an uphill walk from Locarno (I think ~20min). Nice views of the lake, and very ornate decorations in the church, with a particularly nice oil painting from the 19th century of Jesus being carried from the cross.

Beautiful church, magnificent views. Could be a bit crowded but definitely worth it
Amit O — Google review
Take the funicular up to here from the town below, trip takes about 5 minutes. On exiting the top station cross the road and walk down the path to get to the church. Be aware that it is quite a steep and long path down, it can get a bit tiring one the way back to the station especially when it's hot.

Great views. You can take the funicular or walk the stairs from the lake.

An amazing church. Lovely wee museum as well. A bit of a walk up and down but we used the funicular rail. Worth it.
Scott C — Google review
Free and beautiful. Totally worth a visit, if you are already there. Cannot complain at all! Note: If you want to see the museum, it is free, but check the opening hours!
